🙋‍♂️ Allow me to introduce myself through my research. My research focuses on machine learning models (QSARs) and the ecotoxicity of nanomaterials towards aquatic species
Can we get rid of the need to create new accounts for every single journal you submit to

New paper out: doi.org/10.1016/j.im...

Here we created a QSPR for the prediction of nanomaterial ion release (particle dissolution).

We also investigated what effect artifically increasing datasets has on machine learning models.

Basically every ecology paper: "We found a strong link between X and Y at this site, so this is how the world works." The plot.

What works:
- publisher site link
- preprint server link
- DOI / PMID / URN / SSRN / RePec / ArXiv link

What doesn’t work:
- shortlinks like bitly (DOI.org’s own service works)
- uploading the pdf to bsky
- hosting your work on your blog and sharing it from there
- deleting the link then posting

I’ve put together a (micro)plastics starter pack. It’s not an exhaustive list—just those I’ve found on the platform so far. I’m excited to grow my Bluesky network with both new and familiar faces! If you know others in this field joining the platform, let’s bring them into the conversation! 💙

Two days ago, I shared my story of having my identity stolen to publish fake peer reviews

The number of academics who have reached out with similar stories is shocking—impersonated in the same way, receiving AI-written reviews, reviewing AI-written articles, etc

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

A Place of Joy.

Earlier this year, I received news that fake peer reviews were allegedly being submitted impersonating me and approximately six others

I shared my story with Science to, hopefully, reduce the chance of this kind of breach happening again

In 2011, I published what I thought would be my only paper on the reporting and evaluation of ecotoxicity studies. Thirteen years later, the SciRAP platform has evolved into a comprehensive resource for researchers and risk assessors. And today we have a new website. Tell your friends www.scirap.org

📄 How can you build #QSARs using species traits for #nanomaterials? What are the uncertainties and limitations of the models? How does dataset size affect models?

Find out all about it in our recently published paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.en...
